The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A frantic, cartoonish nightmare where a little boy blasts through hordes of monsters and bosses in a dark arcade shooter.

What players say

Players call this a short arena shooter inspired by The Binding of Isaac and Brotato, but with its own identity. Combat is fluid and precise, and the game is challenging but fair. It offers 13 bosses across several floors and rewards replay through unlocking weapons and upgrades, though it is not a roguelite.
